The "'Dum- | bells' engagement in this city has { been limited to three days commeénc- ing Thursday, Nov. 18th, with & spec- tal Saturday matinee, and fgmember- ing the capacity houses which prov- (ed the rulé when they were here last season, it would be well for all | those who contemplate seeing the new show to be on hand early for their reservations. The new show has | been staged along similar lines to that offered last year, and the cast !and chorus remains the same, with she addition of some new members | who joined late in the season. i - A special feature of the new per- formance is a forty-five minute ver- '|sion of Gilbert and Sullivan's ever | popular opera, "Pinafore", in which | Ross Hamilton, the famous Marjorie, appears in the role of Josephine. frida has been included in response to the many requests received from | the boys who saw it when it was gi- | ven at Mons.--Advt, | At the Strand. Fannie Hurst's most appealing | story, ""Humoresque," will be shown {at the Strand theatre to-night, at | the seven and nine 'o'clock perfor- {mances. Two _shows will be run on | account of thé hundreds of our pa- | trons, whom we could not accommo- 'date on Monday and Tuesday even- | ings and their request for two shows, | Wednesday evening. Our patrons | have been very pleased with the { masterpiece, "Humoresque," to the | extent of seeing this celebrated | story over again. It is a tale of | youthful genius and mother love, | with the scene laid chiefly in New | York's Ghetto and Fifth avenue, | Miss Hurst, as is well-known, is | right at home portraying with a realistic touch the characters of New York's humbler inhabitants, |and "Humbresque" is said tb con- |tain intense heart appeal. Humor {and pathos are deftly mingled in the picture, Alma Rubens is the | feature playdr in "Humoresque' |and Gaston Glass and Vera Gordon |are also included in the cast.--Advt. | Coming to the Strand. Few photoplays in recent years | have offered such decided contrasts 'as "Yes or No," the latest offering {of Photodrama at the Strand | theatre, Thursday, Friday and Sat- |urday, in which - Norma Talmadge { plays both parts, the story shifting | from one to the other with startling | rapidity. In the home of Margaret | Vane we see the social elite fritter- | ing away their time while a moment | later, whisked by the magic of the | moving picture camera a few blocks | east, we encountered Minnie Berry, | laboring amid poverty to keep her |home and babies in a manner | worthy of the love of her devoted but preoccupied husband. Of course | Miss Talmadge handles both roles, {and she does it with a rare skill |and charm. Both of her characteri- | zations are excellent, her beauty contributing much to the enjoyment of the picture. Even as Minnie Berry in gingham and with hair be- draggled this delightful little act- ress is good to look upon, while in the gorgeous wardrobe she has equipped herself with for the part | of Margaret Vane her beauty is ir- resistable. In making this picture unusual care has been taken to | taithtully reproduce the settings. In | the Berry home the scenes are actu- {ally "shot" in a tenement. Several | of the settings for the end of the picture are actual scenes in one of the famous homes of wealth.-- Advt. At GAffin's. Tonight will be the last opportu- nity to see the splendid programine whioh has been pleasing large audi- .ences at Griffin's "during the past two days, and is headed by the Bell Ringing Male Quartette, These four young men have created reputation in Kingston as they have in othef places by their splendid rendition of catchy songs and music, and every person who has seen them so far has been delighted. Our feature picture "Old Lady 31" is another delightful item of interest. Emma Dunn plays | the leading role in this rainbow co- medy of life that shows old age mel- lowing with the blessed happiness of | childhood. The play is rich in human | nature, with no end "of absurd | though undeniably natural comedy, and filled throughout with the wist- fulness of love in old age, this come- dy drama is an attraction you will feel more than glad you have seen. The last episode of "The Whirlwind" completes one of the most~interesting programmes shown ait this theatre in some time. Be sure and see it this evening.--Advt, FAREWELL ENTERTAINMENT | | To Rockwood Soldier Patients Who Leave on Thursday. | The Knights of Columbus gave a farewell entertainment to the sol- dier patients at Rockwood hospital on Tuesday evening that was great- ly appreciated. A delightful musi- cal programme was rendered by tal- ented artisis. Those taking part were: Miss Helen Corrigan, Vickery, Miss Madge Devlin, Mr. Pollitt, songs; Mr. Kettlé and Lieut. W. G. Bailey, duet; Misses Simpson and Corrigan, violin duet. Frances Devlin was accompanist. Cigarettes, cigars, confectionery and other refreshments were distributed among the men. The patients go Ste.

Mrs. Wil- | lam Harris, the president, with her | band of enthusiastic workers, pro- I'vided an excellent diner, and af- terwards Mr. McKie, of Queen's, took | the chair and a splendid programme | of vocal and instrumental music, re- | citations, ete., was enjoyed by the | large audience. The piano used was {loaned by the Lindsay Company, | | and the hall was beautifully decor- | | ated by the firemen, under the direc- | | tion of Chief Armstrong. | | Mrs. Harris, Sr, one of the oldest | and most honored members of bd congregation, was at the door tak- ing the tickets. The Ladies' Guild | had charge of the work table, Me: | F.

Jor- dan were among those present, A WITNESS CLAIMED HE WAS OFFERED $5 To Give Evidence for a Man in the Police Court. Two Jewish citizens' aired their | troubles before Magistrate Farrell in police court, Wednesday morning, one charging the other with assault, | but after all the evidence in the case had been taken, Magistrate Farrell dismissed the charge. C. M. Smith | appeared for the plaintiff and T. J. | Rigney for the defence. Part of the | | evidence was secured at Tuesday's session, and the remainder on: Wed- | nesday. The plaintiff claimed that the defendant spit in his face and | also . hit him, but this the accused stoutly denied. A witness, who was caller, caused a mild sensation when he stated dur- ing the course of his evidence, that the plaintiff in'the case had been talking to him and that he had of- fered him $5 to come to court and say what he (the plaintiff) wanted him to say. The witness, who was present when plaintiff and the accused had some trouble, swore that he did not see the accused commit an assault on the plaintiff. 'He just told him to go away," said the witness, STORMOUNT COMING Steamer Jeska Made a Quick Trip to Oswego and Back.
